    Intermittent mis-fire

    When I start the bike I occasionally see the tach jump and at speed I feel a pretty regular skip. The plugs only have about 5k on them and the plugs I pulled out looked perfect. Since it shows on the tach at low speeds, I'm thinking it's a crack in the coil or ignition related versus fuel. It's...

    Slight misfire symptoms

    I changed plugs because I thought I heard a slight skip or misfire. While I was in there, I synched the throttle bodies. The #3 cylinder is what you index the others to. I adjusted them so they were all even at idle. When I rolled on the gas the number 3 dropped around 2500 rpm and then came...

    Coolant system question

    I drained the coolant and refilled it . After filling I warmed up the motor and cracked the throttle a few times to see if any air came out. I then topped off the radiator and reserviour, buttoned up and have done a few rides but it seems to warm up quicker and have one extra bar a little longer...
